EXODE - Space Colonization

Traits are the keywords on character cards and generated characters that describe a character's noteworthy features (i.e. those that affect the game). Some traits denote unusually good or bad skills – remembering that EXODE skills run the gamut from traditional skills to innate abilities and attributes – and are backed by numeric scores. Other traits (e.g. backgrounds, factions, etc.) require and have no additional information behind them.

Traits on character cards affect the range and distribution of the scores behind skill-describing traits and bypass random generation for backgrounds and factions.
